Closer

Carry me down

Where the sky meets the ground

Where the water's still clean

Where I've planted your tree

 

Been watching it grow

Since so long ago

And ripped off the leaves

While they were still green

 

Take my head

And push it under the water

Take my hand

It can only bring me closer

 

But in my heart I know what's wrong and right

Well, I don't have the strength and my wit is too slight

But you take all I have with the bat of an eye

Still, I wanted so bad to make it right

 

So we wait and we pray and count down the days

Till you pack up and you move away

I don't know what's worse

Is it a gift or a curse?

And which path is right?

Will it be fight or flight?

Take my head

And push it deep as you can

Take my hand

It can only bring me closer

 

But in my heart I know what's wrong and right

Well, I don't have the strength and my wit is too slight

But you take all I have with the bat of an eye

With your cold hearted, unkind and unwilling twisted mind

You think you have the right

 

And in the middle of the night she woke

Kicked me out into the street saying go home

There is no room here for two lying whores

But I want her so bad to know that I didn't want her to go
